Reveal smoother, brighter skin by treating wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, uneven texture, and discoloration. At Skinwise Newport Beach, you’ll receive personalized laser skin resurfacing in Newport Beach using advanced MOXI or CO2 technology to help you achieve natural-looking results.
Target Everything From Texture to Wrinkles
Laser skin resurfacing is a customizable treatment that improves your skin by removing damaged cells and stimulating collagen production. Depending on your goals, your provider may recommend a gentle MOXI laser to refresh your complexion or a CO2 laser for deeper resurfacing and advanced wrinkles, rhytids, and scarring. The final result is healthier-looking skin with improved tone and overall radiance.
What Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Treat?
Laser skin resurfacing can address a wide range of cosmetic skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and deeper wrinkles
- Rhytids and crepey skin
- Acne scars and other superficial scars
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven skin tone and discoloration
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Enlarged pores
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Mild skin laxity
- Precancerous sun-damaged skin in select cases
How Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Work?
Laser skin resurfacing in Newport Beach uses concentrated light energy to create controlled changes within your skin. This process removes or heats damaged tissue while triggering your body’s natural healing response. As fresh skin cells replace older ones and collagen production increases, your skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more even in tone and texture. At Skinwise Newport Beach, your treatment is customized using the laser best suited to your goals.
MOXI Laser
MOXI is a non-ablative fractional laser, meaning it creates thousands of tiny treatment zones beneath the skin without removing the surface. These microscopic channels stimulate your natural repair process while leaving surrounding tissue untouched to speed healing. As new collagen forms, you can enjoy brighter skin, more even pigmentation, and a healthier overall complexion with minimal downtime.
CO2 Laser
A CO2 laser is an ablative resurfacing treatment that precisely removes damaged outer layers of skin while delivering heat into the deeper tissue. This dual action immediately eliminates aged skin cells and stimulates significant collagen remodeling. As your skin heals over the following weeks and months, new skin replaces older tissue, helping soften deep wrinkles, rhytids, acne scars, and advanced sun damage.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing offers benefits that go beyond surface-level improvements, including:
- Smooths fine lines, wrinkles, and deeper facial creases
- Improves acne scars, sun damage, and other visible imperfections
- Stimulates natural collagen production for firmer-looking skin
- Refines rough texture and minimizes the appearance of pores
- Customizes treatment intensity with MOXI or CO2 technology
- Addresses multiple skin concerns during a single treatment plan
- Can be tailored to your skin type, goals, and preferred downtime
- Delivers long-lasting improvements with proper skincare and sun protection
What Happens During Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Your provider will cleanse your skin and apply a numbing cream or other comfort measures if needed. During treatment, the laser handpiece is passed across the targeted areas, delivering precise pulses of light energy. You’ll feel warmth or a snapping sensation as damaged skin is treated. The session length depends on the treatment area and laser used.
What Is Recovery Like After Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Your recovery after laser skin resurfacing in Newport Beach will depend on the laser used. After MOXI, you may experience mild redness and a sandpaper-like texture for several days with minimal downtime. CO2 resurfacing involves a longer healing period, with redness, swelling, peeling, and crusting lasting one to two weeks. Your provider will give you detailed aftercare instructions to support optimal healing.
What Are Laser Skin Resurfacing Results Like?
You’ll notice healthier-looking skin as healing progresses, with continued improvements as new collagen develops over the following weeks and months. MOXI often delivers the best results through a series of 3 to 4 treatments spaced a few weeks apart, while CO2 resurfacing may achieve significant improvement in a single session. With good skincare and sun protection, your results can last for years, though maintenance treatments may be recommended.
FAQs
Am I a Better Candidate for MOXI or CO2?
The right choice depends on your skin concerns, goals, and desired downtime. Your provider will evaluate your skin and recommend the laser that best fits your needs.
Will My Skin Look Natural After Treatment?
Yes. Laser resurfacing enhances your skin’s natural appearance by improving its quality rather than changing your facial features, so you can look refreshed without appearing overdone.
Can I Wear Makeup After My Treatment?
That depends on the laser used. After the MOXI laser, you can typically resume makeup once your provider says your skin has healed enough. Following CO2 laser skin resurfacing, you’ll need to wait until your skin has fully re-epithelialized before applying cosmetics.
